Answer 1

So First, We Need To Convert THem To Improper Fractions. 3 And 3/8 Becomes 27/8 And 4 And 1/3 Becomes 13/3. Now, We Just Multiply. 27*13 =351 And 3*8 = 24. This Means The Fraction Is 351/24.

Answer 2

Simple....

so you have...


`3 (3)/(8) *4 (1)/(3)`

To change these fractions into improper fractions to be able to multiply...first..

Multiply the whole number*denominator..

then, add the number you got+the numerator...

and use the original denominator..as the denominator...

3*8=24

24+3=27


`(27)/(8)`

and...

4*3=12

12+1=13


`(13)/(3)`

Now, you can multiply...


`(27)/(8) * (13)/(3)`

27*13=351

and

8*3=24

Thus,
`(351)/(24)`

It can be converted to decimal form...

14.625

Or, mixed number form...

`14 (5)/(8)`
